Agriculture officials report 1931 U.S. cotton production up from 1930, with an estimated 16.9 million bales nationally and a total 25.7 million bales for the year starting August 1931. North Carolina grew 1.34 million acres, about 19 percent of 1929 cultivated land, as experts urge acreage reductions and a shift to longer staple cotton through cooperative one-variety programs.
